How Much Shiba Inu Does Voyager Holds?
Despite the recent transfer, Voyager still holds 1.6 trillion Shiba Inu tokens worth a staggering $23.5 million. SHIB is Voyager’s second biggest holding apart from Bitcoin being the first and Ethereum in the third position.
If Voyager decides to dump the 1.6 trillion Shiba Inu tokens, SHIB’s price could take a severe beating in the indices.

Also, rumors are rife that Voyager is capitalizing on the recent market rally and could liquidate their holdings to compensate its creditors. Nonetheless, the development is not confirmed and it is part of the growing social media hearsay.
Binance.US agreed to buy some of Voyager’s assets in December last year. The deal did not successfully go through and is in limbo as US regulators vetoed the agreement. Binance.US has thus far stayed away from the agreement and has not made a new deal with Voyager.
